A melting pot of influences that took in classic '60s tunes, Reggae, Ska, and Synth-Pop, all bound together by brilliant songwriting. At the end of the '70s Punk arrived on the Pop scene as a response to the big hair and big songs of recent years, and while the bondage trousers and safety pin accessories never found a huge audience, it did herald a time when hair and songs got shorter, and jeans (and the occasional tie) skinnier. Now you can re-visit those days with 64 fantastic songs on 'The Hits Album - 80s New Wave'. Neither cult nor niche, 'The Hits Album - 80s New Wave' has chart topping singles from Blondie ('Atomic'), The Jam ('Start!'), Culture Club ('Do You Really Want to Hurt Me'), and Dave Stewart \u0026amp; Barbara Gaskin ('It's My Party'). We've got acts that are still thrilling audiences more than 40 years later like The Cure ('A Forest'), New Order ('Temptation'), Duran Duran ('Girls On Film'), and Simple Minds ('Love Song'). They're joined by artists who had just one brilliant moment on the chart like Martha and The Muffins ('Echo Beach'), The Barracudas ('Summer Fun'), Split Enz ('I Got You'), and Ph.D. ('I Won't Let You Down'). Whether you lived through it then, or you're discovering these songs for the first time, you're bound to be swept away by 'The Hits Album - 80s New Wave'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Dog Eat Dog - Adam and the Ants \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Atomic - Blondie \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Talk of the Town - The Pretenders \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Start! - The Jam \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Reward - The Teardrop Explodes \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Rock the Casbah - The Clash \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Golden Brown - The Stranglers \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Baby I Love You - Ramones \u003cbr\u003e1.9 This Is Not a Love Song - Public Image Ltd \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Christine - Siouxsie and the Banshees \u003cbr\u003e1.11 The Back of Love - Echo ; the Bunnymen \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Pretty in Pink - The Psychedelic Furs \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Temptation (Single Version) - New Order \u003cbr\u003e1.14 A Forest - The Cure \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Echo Beach - Martha and The Muffins \u003cbr\u003e1.16 So Good to Be Back Home Again - The Tourists \u003cbr\u003e1.17 One in Ten - UB40 \u003cbr\u003e1.18 Private Life - Grace Jones \u003cbr\u003e1.19 It s Different for Girls - Joe Jackson \u003cbr\u003e1.20 Another Nail in My Heart - Squeeze \u003cbr\u003e1.21 Senses Working Overtime - XTC \u003cbr\u003e2.1 What? - Soft Cell \u003cbr\u003e2.2 Girls On Film - Duran Duran \u003cbr\u003e2.3 Instinction (Single Version) - Spandau Ballet \u003cbr\u003e2.4 Play to Win - Heaven 17 \u003cbr\u003e2.5 Change - Tears for Fears \u003cbr\u003e2.6 It s My Life - Talk Talk \u003cbr\u003e2.7 I m in Love With a German Film Star - The Passions \u003cbr\u003e2.8 I Second That Emotion (Single Version) - Japan \u003cbr\u003e2.9 The Sound of the Crowd - The Human League \u003cbr\u003e2.10 Genetic Engineering - Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark \u003cbr\u003e2.11 Love Song - Simple Minds \u003cbr\u003e2.12 African and White - China Crisis \u003cbr\u003e2.13 Dream to Sleep - H2O \u003cbr\u003e2.14 I Won t Let You Down - Ph.D \u003cbr\u003e2.15 The First Picture of You - The Lotus Eaters \u003cbr\u003e2.16 Take That Situation - Nick Heyward \u003cbr\u003e2.17 Oblivious - Aztec Camera \u003cbr\u003e2.18 Der Kommissar - After the Fire \u003cbr\u003e2.19 The Last Film - Kissing the Pink \u003cbr\u003e2.20 Is Vic There? - Department S \u003cbr\u003e2.21 Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division \u003cbr\u003e3.1 Do You Really Want to Hurt Me - Culture Club \u003cbr\u003e3.2 It s My Party - Dave Stewart ; Barbara Gaskin \u003cbr\u003e3.3 Chequered Love - Kim Wilde \u003cbr\u003e3.4 I Want to Be Free - Toyah \u003cbr\u003e3.5 Eighth Day - Hazel O Connor \u003cbr\u003e3.6 Go Wild in the Country - Bow Wow Wow \u003cbr\u003e3.7 John Wayne Is Big Leggy - Haysi Fantayzee \u003cbr\u003e3.8 I Could Be Happy - Altered Images \u003cbr\u003e3.9 Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl) - Haircut 100 \u003cbr\u003e3.10 Poison Arrow - ABC \u003cbr\u003e3.11 Sign of the Times - The Belle Stars \u003cbr\u003e3.12 Just What I Always Wanted - Mari Wilson \u003cbr\u003e3.13 Hands Off...
